If you only have 1 car then I understand the benefit of having a sporty fast SUV, but I really did not like either.
I agree and disagree with what you are saying. My CTT is modified to over 600hp/tq and I have another much faster car the GT2 which is at 620 to 650hp/tq. And I still lust over the RR supercharged. I owned an 07 model and loved it, and from what I read the new model is 2 seconds faster to 60mph, has a much better suspension for handling and comfort, and the infotainment is much improved. So with that info and the fact that I already have a very fast car, I went to the dealer to drive the new model.
Since my normalcy is the CTT my perception is flawed. The new RR felt like a big fat pig, too slow, leaned way too much around turns, and the high end sound system sucked. This is all because I was DD my CTT, so in comparison that was my impression. My CTT has all the goodies like PDCC, Burmester sound system, and much more. So as much as I still love the RR, the CTT just made it feel so blah. If I had money to burn than I would have both because I still love RR.
